Numerical studies of non-local hyperbolic partial differential equations using collocation methods
The non-local hyperbolic partial differential equations have many applications in sciences and engineering. A collocation finite element approach based on exponential cubic B-spline and quintic B-spline are presented for the numerical solution of the wave equation subject to nonlocal boundary condition. Von Neumann stability analysis is used to analyze the proposed methods. The efficiency, accu...

In this technique, the solution is calculated in the form of a series with easily computable components. There test modeling problems from mathematical mechanic, physi...
متن کاملNumerical Methods for Fuzzy Linear Partial Differential Equations under new Definition for Derivative
In this paper difference methods to solve "fuzzy partial differential equations" (FPDE) such as fuzzy hyperbolic and fuzzy parabolic equations are considered. The existence of the solution and stability of the method are examined in detail. Finally examples are presented to show that the Hausdorff distance between the exact solution and approximate solution tends to zero.
متن کاملDiffractive Nonlinear Geometric Optics for Short Pulses
This paper considers the behavior of pulse-like solutions of length ε 1 to semilinear systems of hyperbolic partial differential equations on the time scale t = O(1/ε) of diffractive geometric optics. The amplitude is chosen so that nonlinear effects influence the leading term in the asymptotics. For pulses of larger amplitude so that the nonlinear effects are pertinent for times t = O(1), accu...
متن کاملDispersive and Strichartz estimates for hyperbolic equations with constant coefficients
Dispersive and Strichartz estimates for solutions to general strictly hyperbolic partial differential equations with constant coefficients are considered. The global time decay estimates of Lp−Lq norms of propagators are obtained, and it is shown how the time decay rates depend on the geometry of the problem. The frequency space is separated in several zones each giving a certain decay rate. Ge...
